Abstract

It is an established fact that students’ academic success is proportional to their problemsolving skills. Another established fact is the positive effect of self-confidence on the problemsolving skills of students. Thus, finding the right courses that would improve the self-confidence and problem-solving skills of college students is a concern. Therefore, in this study, influence of drama and drama education on the self-confidence and problem-solving skills of college students of primary school education is studied. The study was conducted with 34 college students via experimental pretest posttest single group design model. Analysis of the collected data revealed that the problem-solving skills levels and self-confidence levels of college students of primary education have improved after being introduced to the drama education. Therefore, it is recommended to incorporate drama into various levels of educational system both as a course and as a technique.
